1. Downloading |
|
|
|
|
============== |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
kmemcheck can only be downloaded using git. If you want to write patches |
|
|
|
|
against the current code, you should use the kmemcheck development branch of |
|
|
|
|
the tip tree. It is also possible to use the linux-next tree, which also |
|
|
|
|
includes the latest version of kmemcheck. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Assuming that you've already cloned the linux-2.6.git repository, all you |
|
|
|
|
have to do is add the -tip tree as a remote, like this: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ git remote add tip git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To actually download the tree, fetch the remote: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ git fetch tip |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And to check out a new local branch with the kmemcheck code: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ git checkout -b kmemcheck tip/kmemcheck |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
General instructions for the -tip tree can be found here: |
|

|
|
|
|
As of version 2.6.31-rc1, kmemcheck is included in the mainline kernel. |
